Hudson finally makes her breakthrough in Hungary

Rebecca Hudson, a three-times Curtis Cup player and twice winner of both the British Amateur Matchplay and Strokeplay Championships, finally made her breakthrough on the women's European Tour in the OTP Bank Central European Open in Hungary. Hudson, 27, from Doncaster, lost her way in her early professional years but a final 70 for 211 gave her the £17,000 prize by two shots from Germany's Anja Monke. Laura Davies's hopes of ending a long drought were boosted by a 65, the best of the third round, in the rain-delayed Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic at Highland Meadows in Ohio, two shots behind the joint leaders Natalie Gulbis and Mi Hyun Kim.
